New Pretty Things

We feature three recent releases on this week’s edition of At Water’s Edge: Psicodreamics’ “Ambiethernum (Revisited)”, a lovely collection of remastered and reworked tracks from previous releases; Cousin Silas’ Dronescape 028; and Vito Gregoli’s latest, Om Land (we might even get a surprise visit from Vito! 😉 )

Sometimes life just doesn’t go to plan: People you hold in high regard let you down, risks you take don’t pay off and end up costing you dear, and that great idea that you had turns out to be anything but; you know what I mean.

When life gets like that I try to retreat, refocus, and restart; and I greatly appreciate music that helps me do that.

The twenty-eighth dronescape from Cousin Silas is one such piece of music and, to be honest, it couldn’t have come at a better time. Its rich, pastoral theme and deeply intoxicating waves of melody have me enthralled. This is music for recuperation and relaxation, music that helps with the reinterpretation of our plans.

Ambiethernum (revisited) is a compilation of the best ambient-atmospheric music of Psicodreamics. This set showcases the best of the best this musician offers. Salva Moreno (the man behind this music project) has been creating his own sonorous universe since 1990 and continues to explore ever new material and themes. Following years of musical and creative growth, Salva looks back to appreciate the long travelled way and show new listeners who discover for the first time the ambient and space side of his sonorous artform. This collection of tracks has been rigorously selected, carefully re-mastered and specially compiled for this release.
